The HP Pavilion Gaming is a classic HP laptop given a gamer's refresh. A little bit of green trim here, a dedicated Nvidia graphics card there and you have a gaming laptop that's both capable and practical. Highlights include a good keyboard and performan...
A little hefty, A standard 720p screen in 2015?, Only comes in green
Here's something you don't see everyday: a gaming laptop geared at budget-conscious buyers. It isn't the most powerful option out there, but it will likely be a smart choice for those looking for a fine balance of value, specs and design...
Balanced hardware package perfect for casual gaming, Decent operating temperatures in a slim notebook factor, Crisp audio via B & O solution
Price is too elevated, 128GB SSD
There you have it, HP's latest Pavilion entry in the Gaming notebook segment; the overall hardware combination is pretty well balanced. HP bundled the screaming fast Intel i7 6700HQ, a whopping total of 16GB DDR3 system memory, with a medium series 128GB...
matte IPS display, keyboard with backlight, well equipped, SSD+HDD
only 12-months warranty, no maintenance hatch
HP did a lot right with the Pavilion 15. The manufacturer combined a powerful quad-core processor with a fast GPU and 16 GB of RAM. An SSD makes for a fast system performance. Nevertheless, the Pavilion does not lack storage space due to a 2.5-inch hard d...

The HP Pavillion 15 Gaming is a decent laptop be it for games, although it does not comes with high end mobile GPU like the GTX970 or 980M and neither it was thin and light. However, this laptop is able to get your game play well at decent resolution with...

Abstract: When we think of gaming hardware, we tend to think of the high-end names–Alienware, Razer, MSI, ASUS ROG, HP's own Omen and even up-and-coming brands like Acer's Predator and Lenovo's Gaming series. It's no secret that gaming costs money. At most times… a...
It is honestly difficult to call the HP Pavilion 15 a gaming laptop. It is cheaper than most other gaming laptops, but it lacks the raw power needed to compete with them. It cuts corners in areas we wished it hadn't: I don't mind the bland design, but mos...
